Options that matter on site
- Top-hung or bottom-rolling. Weight carried overhead or on a floor rail, chosen to suit the structure.
- No headroom needed. With side-opening leaves, cranes, lights and services overhead stay clear.
- Folding leaves. Bi-folding leaves stack neatly where side wall space is limited.
- Wide spans. Openings of almost any width split into as many leaves as needed.
- Robust build. Steel-framed leaves with steel, panel or timber cladding.
Typical scopes of work
- Adding a steel support beam and top-hung track so a sliding door leaves the floor flush for forklifts.
- Replacing a damaged floor rail and guide wheels on a bottom-rolling door struck by a vehicle.
- Installing telescopic sliding doors where the wall space to one side is limited by an adjoining structure.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Radcliffe?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Access, phasing and timing
For busy sites in Greater Manchester the work can be split across visits — preparation and framing first, door installation and commissioning second — so the opening is only out of action for the shortest time.
